Started off the new month with a nice early morning 10 miler out along the Snow Canyon Parkway.  Nice and relaxed today and temps were pretty good.  Less than 2 weeks until Moab.

4 miles with the boys this afternoon by the high school.  We went down by the Flying J and then came back up the hill.  Wasn't feeling it today for some reason.  I was pretty tired today.  I know I haven't been getting good sleep because I have been restless with the new one here.

4 miles in the morning over into Santa Clara.

3.5 miles with the boys this afternoon.

2.5 miles from the high school over to the club run.

10 miles this evening at the club run.

I finally had a decent day this week.  The run this morning was nice and the weather was a touch warm.  The afternoon was perfect.  Short sleeve tech shirt was all I needed.  It was fun running with Dave, Clyde, and Aaron this evening at the club run.  We went from the DC all the way over to SunRiver and back.  It was fun running on a new trail.  Lots of people out tonight which was nice to see.

 I need to finish the week out strong and then really get ready for Moab next Saturday.  Possibility of snow.  Yeah!

11.10 miles in the morning.

2 miles in the afternoon.

I woke up and felt pretty good.  I went along the Snow Canyon Parkway for a nice morning run.  I averaged 7:22/mile overall.  Nothing fancy but just nice and easy.  I saw Marcie and some of her friends running along the trail.  They were the only runners this morning who even said "hi."  The other people running were not talking to anyone.  When you see someone running on the same trail as you at 5:30 in the morning, just say "hi."  Heaven forbid they might reply back with a "hello or how are you?" That is my daily vent for the day.

2 easy miles this afternoon around the track at the high school.

Ran with Clyde and Dave this morning out on the Warner Valley Road.  It rained all last night so their was some muddy sections that were not fun to deal with.  It looked like the 3 of us were ice skating at times.  The light rain felt nice and it was good to get a decent 20 miler in before next week.  Clyde and I are both optimistic to see what happens.  The terrain probably won't be the best but we have had some good training runs in the mud, rain, and snow as of late.  We will have to see how it goes.  Next week will be nice and easy so the legs are fresh.
